• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium-sized bowl mix together the flour(s), baking soda, (baking powder if making the cakey version) and salt. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer beat both kids of sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the egg yolk (or eggs, if making cakey version), beat until very well combined, about 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice and sour cream, mix until well combined. Sprinkle the dry ingredients over the wet ingredients, stir until just combined. Gently stir in the blueberries. Using a cookie scoop, scoop golf ball sized mounds onto a cookie sheet that has been covered with parchment paper (if making cakey version, chill for 20 to 30 minutes prior to baking or they will spread too much. Chewy version does not need to be chilled). Bake at 350°F for 12 to 16 minutes or until the top just starts to turn a very light golden brown. Immediately slide the parchment onto the counter, allow the cookies to cool to room temperature.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside. Using a mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth and very fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, lemon extract and lemon peel. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and roll in sugar. Place on lined cookie sheets about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned.

Any mildly flavored bread will do. The cookies will suck the moisture out of the bread. The cookies will be soft. And wonderful. I only learned this trick a year or two ago and I now swear by it. If you want soft cookies, you must use the bread.
